A/n- In this ficlet, there is Hinageshi, who is a Spirit Guide. She never appears in the YYH anime or manga, but she was in the YYH movie, Poltergeist Report. Just thought I'd note that. I had a lot of fun writing this, so I hope everyone enjoys it!

Sweet Dreams

Ficlet #4: Kurama's Dream

Kurama found himself standing in front of the altar in a quaint little chapel. It was extravagantly decorated, but there were gatherings of tulle at the ends of the church pews. Also, flower arrangements were strewn throughout the place to liven it up.

Obviously, someone was getting married. Kurama saw many of his friends and family members seated in the pews. He even saw his mother smiling at him, holding a handkerchief to her misting eyes. She waved to her son and blew her nose.

And then it hit him... He was the one getting married! He was in a tuxedo! He was standing up front with the minister! Who else but the groom did that? The only question was, who was the bride? Hopefully, it wasn't one of those Russian, mail-order brides. He could certainly do much better than that!

Suddenly, the organ to the left of Kurama began to play. He glanced over. There sat Genkai, playing the tune 'Here Comes the Bride.' The song made a knot form in his stomach...

Now, the bridal party began to come out. Yusuke came in with Keiko. They were followed by Koenma escorting Shizuru and Kuwabara walking with Yukina. The girls looked ravishing in their pastel-pink, sleeveless dresses, holding bouquets of white lilies. The men were looking rather handsome in their black tuxedos as well. Even Kuwabara looked decent. They took their spots on either side of Kurama and the minister.

Genkai continued to play as the blue penguin, Puu flew down the aisle. He had a black bow tie around his invisa-neck and a pillow holding two golden rings hanging from his beak. He flew over to Yusuke, who took the pillow from the "bird." Puu then proceeded to sit on Yusuke's head.

The next person to come down the aisle was the forever-cute Hinageshi. She wore a frilly, pale pink dress. A wreath of white lilies encircled her head as her red, Shirley Temple curls bounced up and down. She happily skipped down the aisle, sprinkling white and pink flower petals from her basket as she went.

Finally, the organ grew louder, meaning the entrance of the bride. Everyone rose from their seats. The bride came into view, wearing a long-sleeved, flowing dress. A thick veil covered her face entirely, making it difficult to see her face. She carried a bouquet of white tulips and baby's breath as she walked gracefully down the aisle.

Kurama couldn't tell who the bride was. That stupid veil was in the way! However, judging by the height and the bust area, he had a pretty good hunch. It was Botan! He had been attracted to her for so long... His true dream would finally come true! At least, in his dreams.

The bride, hopefully Botan, now came to the altar and turned to face Kurama. He delicately lifted the veil over her head.

At the sight of the 'bride', Kurama nearly jumped out of his skin and passed out. 'She' certainly wasn't Botan... It was Hiei!

"How? When? What?" Kurama asked, gaping at the sight. Hiei in a wedding dress?

"The fangirls made me do it," Hiei mumbled grumpily, turned beet red and glaring down at the floor.

"But, you're tall! And the boobs!" Kurama exclaimed in disbelief. He desperately needed an explanation.

"Heels and a water bra..." Hiei clarified, utterly ashamed of himself. "They tackled and blackmailed me..." He even wore a button saying "Kurama's #1 Fan."

"Is this someone's idea of a sick joke?" Kurama cried out, throwing his hands in the air.

"Can we get on with the ceremony? I have two other weddings and a funeral today," the pastor said.

"NO!" Kurama and Hiei yelled in unison.

"Anyway, if anyone has a reason as to why these two should not be wed in holy matrimony, speak now or forever hold..." the pastor went on.

"I object!" Kurama interrupted.

"Oh, come on, Kurama! You make a cute couple!" Yusuke piped up.

Everyone else in the chapel made their comments of support as well.

-----------------------------

Kurama shot up in his bed, breathing hard and sweating like he had just been in a sauna. That had been a thoroughly disturbing dream!

"It was only a dream...Just a dream..." he told himself, over and over. He rocked himself back and forth in a fetal position.

-Fin-

A/n- Sorry to those Hiei or Kurama or HieiXKurama fans for making fun of them... I just couldn't help it! (I'm more of a Yusuke fan! XD) I hope you still liked it though! After all, it WAS only a dream... tee-hee. Review please! I love those of you who do!
